4.5/5.0. It is not that i don't like it (I do) it's just that I've been getting used to Android because of my phone and at some points i seem to miss some of Android's stuff like widgets, or a real notification bar. Also and this seems to be an issue with Google not Apple i cant sync all my Google calendars to it so i end up looking at my phone more and more, another disadvantage --also because of $GOOG-- is that there is no Chrome available for it, no SD card slot or USB port, and finally on the downside also the cloud sync is really poor when compared with Android's, something that mey be fixed if they ever allow free mobile me services for all users ($99.00 a year is simply lame when you compare it with Google's service or even MSFT's Live)

On the plus side, data push and fetching works waaaaay better than in Android, it hasn't crashed ever, battery life is amazing --I'm never able to drain it in a day and usually lasts two-- the screen is a thing of beauty and is great for media consumption (videos, mags, books or plain web browsing) there is multitasking finally but sadly the screen lock button functionality was changed into a redundant mute button and the screen locking function is now buried below a really counter intuitive double home button pressing bottom screen-right swiping. Also considering it's low 256 RAM it is very quick and almost never lags. One other thing that strikes me as strange is that now that all this new Honeycomb tablets are coming out it turns out the iPad is actually a budget conscious option!

It's a great but not "magical" device but at this point don't buy it, wait for the iPad2 and then compare that one with the Honeycomb tablets that are being released this days.
